A new improved energy efficient steel stud for commercial and residential building construction has been tested at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory and soon may be introduced into the market place.Ralph Fandel of Engineering Technology Consultants of Marysville, Wash.,...
Disease diagnosis, forensics and environmental monitoring are among the areas likely to benefit by a system that combines the best of two proven technologies. Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Micromechanical Biochip Array Reader System provides fast and accurate identification of proteins and DNA seq...
DOE's Spallation Neutron Source has posted more firsts in its procession to full operation. Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory recently opened a shutter that allowed an instrument to receive and count neutrons for the first time. Those neutrons also were the first "cold neutrons" produced a...
Extensive systems design, computational and visualization capabilities at Oak Ridge National Laboratory are playing a vital role in providing a "virtual soldier" for use in the treatment of battlefield wounds. As envisioned in the Virtual Soldier project, each soldier would be equipped with a person...
A steel wall stud that improves thermal performance within wall systems over traditional steel studs has significantly improved the R-values based on the results of several tests conducted at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Buildings Technology Center. During an era of rising energy and lumber costs...
Federal, state and local officials today dedicated a new technology park at Oak Ridge National Laboratory that proponents predict will bring new companies and jobs to East Tennessee.
